I just finished watching Godsend (De Niro and Rebecca Romjin-Stamos)
I wish I had known before I started this movie that it was a cliff-hanger, no ending. I guess TPTB thought it was good enough to deserve a part 2, I don't.

Cloning a dead 8 year old boy is the subject and after he reaches his death date a darker side begins to appear. Bad movie, to loud music and no ending, what more is there to say. :sad

We rented Kill Bill vol 2 and although not quite as good as the first (except of course for the Darryl Hannah fight), it's worth watching. Also rented "Freaky Friday" for my granddaughters and it wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. Maybe it's because I thought it was going to be horrible and set myself up for it and then kinda liked it.

I was going to rent 'Gigli' but thanks to SnowflakeGirl I won't have to "gauge mine own eyes out." ;)

Watched Taking Lives last night. Good movie, but very predictiable. Kinda boring at parts, but maybe that is just me. I give it a :up :up :up 3 out of 5!

coolguy, I couldn't stay awake. I shut it off halfway through. I also saw Godsend. Wow. Now that, I liked. I never would've expected that twist. Great acting on all parts. Even Rebecca Romajn who until now has only been really known for her catwalk strutting and small role in Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me.

I do want to give Taking Lives another shot. Maybe I was just tired when I watched it and that's why I fell asleep. I think it started off reeeeaaallllly slow. But maybe once it really gets going, it maybe a good movie.

Along Came Polly - I didnt really want to see this, I thought the trailer looked really bad. But last night i was able to watch it for free it on the On Demand thing (I usually get the Double Features for free) and i actually enjoyed it. Sure it was stupid and i guessed what was going to happen at the very begining (and was right) but it was fun. 6/10

Reality Bites - Janeane Garofalo stole the show. 8/10

Bollywood/Hollywood - liked, surprisingly charming
The Laws of Attraction - predictable (what romantic comedy isn't?) but good performances by the leads, especially Julianne Moore. I liked it.
Notting Hill - okay, okay, I've already seen it a MILLION times, but never on DVD :rolleyes. Excellent as usual.
The Rundown - can you guess why I, as a woman, rented this movie??? The Rock = :drool :lol
Ella Enchanted - cute movie. My 5 year old niece loved it.

I agree about Along Came Polly....I thought it was much better than I expected it to be. Felt the same about The Big Bounce and Starsky & Hutch. Thought they were going to be really stupid movies, and I thought they were cute. Nothing fantastic, but did make me laugh several times. :)
